Donald Trump's enthusiasm for artificial intelligence may be tempered by a new report from the Washington Post that demonstrated that five different AI models responded that the president plays fast and loose with the truth.

In recent speeches, the president has been a big booster of AI, in addition an executive order designed to “sustain and enhance America’s dominance in AI.”

With that in mind, the Post's Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, Stephen Henriques and Steven Tian decided to test the technology to see how Trump's statements hold up when compared to reported facts.

As it turns out, Trump did not fare well.

Setting the stage, the report notes, "To counter any inadvertent bias or systemic failures, we asked each of five leading AI models — OpenAI’s ChatGPT; Anthropic’s Claude; X/xAI’s Grok (owned by Elon Musk); Google’s Gemini; and Perplexity — to verify the president’s most oft-repeated claims or assertions," while pointing out each platform is independent from the others.

"Artificial intelligence discredited all the Trump claims we presented, fact-checking the president with startling accuracy and objective rigor," the report notes before adding, "Across all questions, AI model responses disproving Trump’s claims or rejecting his assertions were always in the majority (i.e., 3 out of 5 responses or greater). All five models generated consistent responses firmly denying the claims in 16 of the 20 questions."

As an example, the AI platforms were asked the touchy question: "Will Trump’s current tariff policies be inflationary?"

Both Grok and ChatGPT came to the same conclusion with Grok, on Elon Musk's X, replying, "Trump’s 2025 tariff policies are likely to be inflationary, with estimates suggesting a 1-2.3% rise in consumer prices, equivalent to $1,200-$3,800 per household in 2025."

The platforms also came back with answers unfavorable to Trump on his cryptocurrency involvement (Grok: "Trump’s cryptocurrency investments … present a strong case for a conflict of interest due to his administration’s pro-crypto policies, personal financial gains, and events like the $TRUMP gala, which suggest access-selling) and the even touchier question of "Is Trump right that the media is 'dishonest' or 'tells lies'?"

Examples like that led to the following summation: "How would Trump respond to the near-unanimous denial of his claims by the five AI models? Probably the way he always reacts to unfavorable news — by discrediting the dissent. But would he disavow the technology he is decisively promoting? Or, is there something fundamentally wrong with the accuracy of these AI models that is not widely realized?"

"The simple truth our analysis points to is this: Either the president is wrong, or the technology is a failure. We leave it to you to choose," the Post report concluded.

MAGA adherents have taken to social media to proclaim that the federal judge who ruled against the Trump administration's attempts to stifle asylum-seekers should simply be ignored.

U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss ruled in favor of 13 individuals seeking asylum, as well as three immigrant rights groups that challenged Trump's executive order suspending U.S. asylum law.

"In his decision, Moss ruled that neither the Immigration and Nationality Act nor the Constitution give the president and administration officials 'the sweeping authority' asserted in his proclamation," CBS News reported.

Top White House aide and architect of Trump's deportation program Stephen Miller posted, "To try to circumvent the Supreme Court ruling on nationwide injunctions a marxist judge has declared that all potential FUTURE illegal aliens on foreign soil (eg a large portion of planet earth) are part of a protected global 'class' entitled to admission into the United States."

Far from simply expressing their opposition to the ruling, MAGA took to social media to demand that the judge's opinion be discounted altogether.

Eric Daugherty with Florida's Voice News posted, "Federal judge says President Trump needs to RE-OPEN the border for 'asylum seekers' - POLITICO WTF? A JUDGE is trying to REINSTATE INVASION! Do not listen to this ruling AT ALL!"

Two MAGA commentators, @GuntherEagleman and @MrPitbull07 wrote, simply, "Ignore the judge."

Others commented on the recent Supreme Court decision blocking universal injunctions, with The Conservative Alternative writing, "The Supreme Court just ruled 6-3 that these universal injunctions don't hold legal authority. Trump needs to ignore every order that doesn't come from the Supreme Court itself."

Radio host Cash Loren posted, "Ignore that commie Judge. SCOTUS has already ruled they don't have the authority."

SeekingTruth took a more drastic approach, writing, "Send in the FBI or, better yet, the military police and charge the insurrectionist judge with treason and insurrection. Lock him up in a military prison while awaiting trial."
